Open Race Thread: NASCAR Sprint Cup Series STP 400 | Kansas Speedway

Jun 5, 2011, 4:23 PM UTC

The wild west is living up to its reputation (see previous post), now let’s see what NASCAR does about it, if anything.

There’s lot’s that I’d like to post here right now, but time is something I don’t have at the moment so this is it - I’m sure you’ve all got something to say about today and yesterday so have at it in the comment section. Just remember, we share opinions, not personally attack each other. Play nice.

My picks to win are the 48, 16, and 99 - not necessarily in that order. What say you?

Starting lineup can be found after the jump!

See you on the other side, in the comment area of course.
